Is there any reason to not use 3/4 groove bearings in a BB Mopar stroker engine? Or any better reason(s) to use Full Groove instead of the 3/4-groove?


I use 3/4 groove if I can find them. Sometimes it is really hard to find bearings these days so you just live with what you can get. In the old days when parts were available we used 3/4 groove on everything.


That is the way I am going. The 3/4 groove set wound up fitting much better across all of the mains than the full groove set did.
